Chapter 921: Inquiry
Over the years, smugglers from the outside world have repeatedly trafficked goods to the Endless Sea of Sand and Demon Wind Gobi.
Behind this, there must be support from influential merchant families like the Big Merchant Alliance.
Although Meng Zhang used thunderous means to severely crack down on these smugglers, he couldn't completely eliminate them.
After all, the Endless Sea of Sand and Demon Wind Gobi are too vast, and the borders are extremely extensive. Even with strict guarding, it's impossible to prevent any loopholes.
Moreover, Taiyi Sect heavily develops the Demon Wind Gobi and must accept various cultivators from outside.
With an increasing number of cultivators coming and going, it's inevitable that some malicious individuals would sneak in.
If it weren't for the efficient work of Taiyi Sect's Secret Hall, smuggling activities would be even more rampant than they are now.
Meng Zhang knows that Taiyi Sect lacks the strength to confront the Big Merchant Alliance and others directly, so they have always focused on dealing with smugglers without conflicts.
Now, True Monarch Shang Han has taken the initiative to visit and actually proposed that Meng Zhang opens markets on Taiyi Sect's territory.
